Metro

Icy winter roads barely affect the metro, which runs on time — a worry-free way to travel to and from downtown.

Metro, bus, taxi and driving routes to Ice and Snow World from downtown Harbin, the stations and the airport — all in one guide.

In peak winter season city traffic is heavy; crossing the river by metro toward Songbei is easiest. Avoid the closing-time taxi rush, and if driving, slow down on icy roads.
